Hello Gavin. Board 8. When I "played the deal" I bid 3S with the South hand. Is this crazy? I must admit I did worry that partner might think I had a stronger hand if i only bid 2S. I hear your explanation and hope my partner has enough sense to work things out another time. I did make 9 tricks but perhaps I was lucky. Thank you.

It's an enterprising bid. I would do it at favorable vulnerability, personally.
